Also when you trade a pick for a keeper you are not just trading away a pick you are also not keeping some other player, its not the same as drafting that player with that pick, its significantly worse because by then you would have picked all the other players before.
Yeah, exactly. If I'm giving up a pick, I need to feel like there's either genuine upside potential or a guy has a track record of averaging a good bit more than the one he is replacing. A fourth round pick is still a necessary starter.

Yeah I get it, it's why I'm so critical of being offered [redacted] for my 1st rounder, when you consider it means I also would've had to drop Bowers or St Brown to keep [lesser player]

I would've been hesitant too and if I thought it was a toss up I would've kept Connor too. I like Connor a lot as a player, you just gotta wonder with Benson and age how much longer it can go, but you secured Benson in the draft smartly so you're set. I'm not really on message boards the way most people are or the way I used to be anyway so I forget that sometimes comments like I made can come across as critical when they're just meant more as, wow you guys could've had a guy who (by ADP standards) would've been kept in any other 14 man league and instead didn't wanna lose pick 90. I didn't mean for anyone to feel targeted or that it was a real jab at anyone's team.

Totally in agreement that I don't like Saturday drafts either, was trying to be considerate to our only foreign players with the late time and really wish if these flakes had let me know it was an issue we could've had better attendance. I hope I can continue commentate on the season without so much hostility going forward lol

does anyone have a roster of what team = what username. I feel like trade negotiations would be 10x faster if I knew who to talk to directly

Looks like James Connor is out for the year too. That's the way it goes. Can't go back in time with hindsight; I stand by choices at the time.

On a brighter note, I couldn't help but cackle at my special teams difference in my matchup: 30 to -5 and I won by 31 points, haha. Minnesota put a beatdown on.

Luckily had Minn in my other league.

If anyone notices a team not updating please let me know. This league has lasted so long bc it remains active and competitive and we want to keep it that way.

I think this is probably my best start to a year ever. 4-0, no games were particularly close, and not a fluke as I'm top in points too.

Incoming 12 game losing streak.

I feel like I’m stacked better this early in the season than ever before and what’s funny is the trade where the only person I knew irl blew a gasket too, has led to 2 missed games already which was part of the risk of the 190lb qb

Of course, I jinxed myself. James Conner's backup, who was looking solid, is out for a while and Bucky Irving seems like he's going to be out next game.

Carter getting the starting spot over Demercado... Fucking Cardinals. Good catch, there.

Edit: and he rips 81 yards in 2 carries while Carter has 3.1 ypc on 14. Maybe he hit on the coach's wife.

Edit: just realized the play was a showboat dumbass fumble, robbing his team of a TD. You'd think someone wouldn't do that when it happened just last week. I guess he didn't get the starter job because he's dumb.
